Connor Macgregor (On Vacation) Reviews...Ice Age

A Great Animated film to see....Ice Age is a classic....but i doubt the sequels are.

20,000 years before, our planet is entering an ice age. All kinds of animals begin immigrating to the south, seeking more warm climates. Sid, a sloth who never stops talking is left behind sleeping while everyone else begins the journey to the south. Awaking, he meets Manny, a mammoth who travels to the north, and decides to follow him. When a humans camp is attacked by tigers, a woman takes her baby and jumps on a river. Before she drowns, the baby is rescued by Manny and Sid. The two animals decide to search for the father and return the baby to him. Diego, one of the tigers that attacked the humans, comes also claiming the baby.

This is a great animated film. The voice acting is marvellous which is lead by the ever talented Ray Romaro who has a voice that works for a sarcastic character like Manny. Then there is Dennis Leary as Diego who i think is the best character in the film because he is dangerous and deadly , yet very likeable as a character. Also he has the biggest character development in the film. Of course there is also Sid voiced by John Leguizamo who is funny at first but then gets too that stage where he gets annoying and you feel like Diego and Manny throughout the whole film.

I like the story too. 3 Unlikely animals teaming up to get a baby back to its father , it feels like a 3 way buddy movie with animals and the directing and writing help the story be believeable...as well as the voice acting.
Also i want to mention Little Scrat. No voice actor because the character works without a voice. All Scrat wants is too store its nut somewhere for the winter. You love this character not just because of his determination , but the comedic situations he enters in everytime he tries to save his walnut and he gets the bumps and bruises in the end.

Overall Ice Age is great fun to watch with great voice acting. So find it and give it a watch.
